 Syd Barrett - 'The Radio One Sessions' (Strange Fruit) 3 1/2 stars
Submitted on: 2007-09-25 |

| Good, well decent... rare radio broadcast of a John Peel session. Believe the rarity of this performance sort of over rides the sound quality, although it's acceptable. I thought "Gigolo Aunt", "Two Of A Kind", the trippy "Baby Lemonade" and "Dominos" made this CD at least worth checking out. Line-up: Syd - guitar & vocals, Dave Gilmour - organ, bass & guitar and Jerry Shirley (Humble Pie, Fastway) - drums. My only complaint is this release should have been longer than a mere twenty minutes. Next time, add some bonus material. Pretty much aimed toward the completists. |

Cambridge saw you born Cambridge saw you left, you were long gone long gone as you sang, you left days ago but you said goodbay long decades ago, this is only a consolidation of your goodbay , progressive rock would be the same without you , Pink Floyd wouldnt be the same without you , the music wouldnt be the same without you, we wish you were here.

| Syd Barrett will be greatly missed. His whimsical songwriting style was unique and greatly influenced many famous musicians like David Bowie. This cd is an essential purchase for those wishing a taste of genius. |

| Having exhausted the Madcap Laughs, Barrett & Opel, I found this to be a great addition. The version of "Terrappin" is a really nice addition, with its brighter more open feel than the album version, also it sounds more watery which helps lines like "we're the fishes". Baby Lemonade was kind of a mess, and not neccesarily in a good way, but I do like it also, I was disappointed that it didn't have the guitar intro that is on the "Barrett" album, but I'm over it. I still think it is really worthwhile. The melody, melancholy, grace come through as is so often with Barrett. I also loved his rhythym chops on Gigolo Aunt which has great energy and drive, though it flickers a little bit. This is a great addition to my Barrett collection and I excpect I will give it many listens. |

| Las sesiones de la BBC son una clara muestra de que el deterioro mental de Syd Barret no tomaba aun su forma de hacer música, la magia y oscura sicodelia que inundo su cerebro se palpa en cada minuto de esta grabación, convirtiendo sus temas en unas obras de arte, el ambiente se siente extraño, hasta escalofriante, dan ganas de saber que seria de Pink Floyd con un Syd Barret actual....en definitiva imperdible una joya para los que comienzan a conocer el arte de Syd en solitario...el proximo paso...el Box Set |
